[Going Green] WaterWipes

“This post was sponsored by WaterWipes as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review.”

It's been a while since I shared some of our favorite natural and eco-friendly products. I was contacted to participate in a campaign for WaterWipes, and after learning more, they totally passed the chemical free test!

WaterWipes are a premium European brand - based in Ireland!. They are 100% chemical free and only contain two ingredients - 99.9% purified water and 0.1% grapefruit seed extract. Perfect and gentle enough for wiping even the newest and tiniest baby behinds.

And while we do have one child left in diapers, I have been using my favorite chlorine free and aloe and vitamin E enriched wipes since they day we brought Ashlynn home. They were always by far my favorite even compared to the chemical filled national brands since they were durable and moist enough to clean up a mess with ease with only one wipe. I was skeptical of another brand doing the same, but WaterWipes has been the first brand I've tried that has come close. The only drawback to my previous diaper wipes brand, is that I didn't like using them on hands and faces since the natural added lotion would leave a foam which I wasn't too fond of being near their mouths or hands. WaterWipes clean messy hands and faces like a breeze with nothing added left behind.

And with two toddlers, messes are non-stop around here. No more need to wet rough paper towels to wipe faces while darting away from the table or the classic spit and swipe on the cheeks when getting out of the car. On top of that, they are great for wiping off make up too. The wipes are also not inter-folded, which is nice since 10 don't come flying out when I'm trying to only grab one in a pinch. The company designed the packing that way to maintain a sterile environment within the package, but the fact I don't have to smoosh a wad back in after is genius enough for me.

I challenged the wipes to the quintessential toddler mess that is the Fluffer Nutter sandwich.

Just like with diaper changes, the wipes easily cleaned up messy marshmallow fluff hands without any rough scrubbing.

Both my girls have sensitive skin that gets dry and is prone to eczema during the winter months. I'm always aware to be gentle when wiping faces, but usually messes are so stubborn - as are the squirming children - that by the time their faces are cleaned up they are red from the wiping. Thankfully with no added chemicals, these sweet cheeks were back to their kissable selves after a quick and ticklish clean up.

I was easily able to find and pick up two packs of WaterWipes at my local GIANT super market. They were located front and center with the baby wipes and were even marked down with a shopper's card. If you are looking to switch to a chemical free wipe that stands up, you can use this link to find WaterWipes at select locations and retailers near you!
